How does the electrical current in electrolysis act as a catalyst driving a reaction forwards?

Chemistry
1 answer:
aev [14]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The electrical current in electrolysis act as a catalyst driving a reaction in forward direction because when the electric current is allowed to the electrodes, the particles in the solution starts movement towards electrodes. Before this current, the particles inside the solution are static. If a solution contain sodium chloride so when the electrical current is passed. Sodium moves to the negative electrode while chlorine moves towards positive electrode and both the atoms are separated from each other and the reaction is completed.

What does the number 84 in the name krypton 84 represent
Shtirlitz [24]
Hi :)

The bottom number tells you how many protons you have in the nucleus of this element.

In Krypton-84, this means that you have 84 nucleons, where 36 of these are protons, and the remaining 48 are neutrons.


Hope this helps :)

Explain how lithium atom is positive charge​
yulyashka [42]
Lithium is an element that has an electronic configuration of 2,1. So when forming bonds, it tries to release one of its electrons in the last shell to reach the octet state. Normally when atoms release electrons they get positive charge since the number of protons which bear positive charge, is higher than number of electrons which bear negative charge. So when reaching its octet state, lithium gains positive charge!

Hope this helps! Tbh am not good at explaining. If u have any doubts, ask me!

If the reaction N2 (g) + 3 H2 (g) --> 2 NH3 (g) has the concentrations 1.1 M for nitrogen, 0.75 M for hydrogen and 0.25 M fo
Luba_88 [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The value of K_c is 0.136 and is reactant favored.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Equilibrium constant in terms of concentration is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as K_{c}

For the chemical reaction between carbon monoxide and hydrogen follows the equation:

N_2(g)+3H_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NH_3(g)

The expression for the K_{c} is given as:

K_{c}=\frac{[NH_3]^2}{[N_2][H_2]^3}

We are given:

[NH_3]=0.25M

[H_2]=0.75M

[N_2]=1.1M

Putting values in above equation, we get:

K_c=\frac{(0.25)^2}{1.1\times (0.75)^3}

K_c=0.135

There are 3 conditions:

  • When K_{c}>1; the reaction is product favored.
  • When K_{c}; the reaction is reactant favored.
  • When K_{c}=1; the reaction is in equilibrium.

For the given reaction, the value of K_c is less than 1. Thus, the reaction is reactant favored.

Hence, the value of K_c is 0.136 and is reactant favored.
